Time for the Grand Finale of Perlage CAVALIADA Tour in Kraków

It’s time for the grand finale – tomorrow the final stage of the Perlage CAVALIADA Tour equestrian series begins at Tauron Arena in Kraków. A press conference for the event was held today.

From February 26 to March 1, Tauron Arena Kraków will host the grand finale of the Perlage CAVALIADA Tour equestrian series. Representatives of 15 countries will compete for podium places in the overall Tour standings across four equestrian disciplines – show jumping, driving, dressage and eventing. The best show jumpers from the region will also compete in the FEI World Cup Central European League Final. The event program is complemented by special competitions, spectacular shows and a fair of equestrian equipment and accessories.

“For the seventh time we are meeting in Kraków, in the largest indoor sports and entertainment arena in Poland. It is here that we are holding the final of the entire 2025–2026 season as well as the FEI World Cup Central European League Final. More than 300 horses are arriving in Kraków, and the infrastructure has been prepared to ensure the highest level of comfort for both riders and horses. Starting tomorrow at 8 a.m., we will once again be able to enjoy sporting action in the arena. Saturday is already sold out, with only VIP tickets still available. We are also pleased that more than 80 companies will present their offer in the exhibitors’ zone – the second largest expo in the series after Poznań. Alongside the competitions in the main arena, we have prepared a children’s zone and a Hobby Horse arena. Four days of top-level sport and spectacular final prizegiving ceremonies lie ahead of us,” – said Jakub Patelka, Director of the Perlage CAVALIADA Tour.

“As the title partner, we feel enormous pride in co-creating such a prestigious event. Equestrian sport is close to our brand’s DNA, which is why we experience every stage of Cavaliada very emotionally. The previous leg in Łódź brought a wonderful victory for Jarosław Skrzyczyński, and we hope that the finale in Kraków will also end with success for Polish riders and the Polish national anthem,” – said Dorota Weka, Creative Director of the Perlage brand.

“The competition promises to be very intense in all disciplines. In show jumping we will see a strong international field and the battle in the FEI World Cup Central European League Final. Polish riders are at the top of the Perlage CAVALIADA Tour standings, but that does not mean it will be easy for them, as experienced foreign riders will also be fighting for victory. The program also includes dressage, indoor eventing and driving, where the overall standings have never been so close. Additionally, we will see special competitions such as Speed & Music and the Six Bars. Four days of top-level sport await the spectators,” – said Szymon Tarant, Sport Director of the Perlage CAVALIADA Tour.

“I have been to many places and many competitions, and I am convinced that Cavaliada is an event of world-class sporting and organizational level. We believe in the further development of the event and its future editions. Our presence in Kraków is particularly important to us. We are pleased that as a brand we can participate in an event so important for society, because as I often say – living close to nature is in the DNA of every human being. Personally, I have a great fondness for Kraków – last year my daughters stood on the podium of the Respect Energy Open Tour here, and 20 years ago I met my wife in this city,” – said Tomasz Zadroga, Chief Investment Officer of Respect Energy.

“Cavaliada has become a permanent fixture in the calendar of Kraków’s sporting events. Year by year we see its dynamic growth – both organizationally and in terms of attendance. We are glad that residents of Kraków and tourists can take part in an event of such world-class stature. This confirms that Kraków is a city of sport and a reliable partner for prestigious events,” – said Tomasz Marzec, Director of the Municipal Sports Infrastructure Authority in Kraków.

“Cavaliada has for years been an integral part of Tauron Arena Kraków. Full stands, high sporting standards and the emotions of the fans build the brand of both the event and the city. This event promotes Kraków in Poland and across Europe, and we hope it will remain with us for many years to come,” – said Jacek Gryzło, Vice President of Tauron Arena Kraków.

From February 26 to March 1, we warmly invite you to Tauron Arena – top-level equestrian sport in a unique setting and the unforgettable atmosphere of Perlage CAVALIADA Tour are guaranteed. Tickets are available at ToBilet.pl.
